NOVEL NEXT Chapter 162.1: Ice
Xiao Yan, in such a firm and resounding manner, uttered his final request, word by word.
This stunned everyone, including Yin Shi and even Yue Mei.
In the eyes of all, there was a profound shock, and even their hearts and souls were shaken by Xiao Yan’s words.
What kind of person could speak so calmly and decisively?
Leaving aside others, even these Dou Wang (Battle King, 6th Level), do they have such magnanimity to utter such words?
Everyone couldn’t help but question themselves.
In the end, they all unanimously rejected it.
Clearly, they couldn’t do it.
They had the courage to face death.
If, someday in the future, they were required to sacrifice for the Snake-People, they would not frown.
But they absolutely couldn’t do it like Xiao Yan, even if he were killed by the Snake-People, he still wouldn’t want Xiao Li to know about his death, affecting the reconciliation between Humans and the Snake-People.
People like Xiao Yan, let alone meeting them, they hadn’t even heard of them.
In this world, there seemed to be someone who could go to such lengths.
Even using the phrase “one in a million” to describe Xiao Yan was far from enough.
In the cognition of these Tribe Leaders, such a person could not possibly exist.
However, now, the person they thought could not possibly exist was standing right in front of them!
Seeing the shock of the Tribe Leaders, Yao Chen also felt quite emotional.
Surprised, huh? Shocked, huh?
In the many years of her life, she had never seen a person like Xiao Yan.
The existence of someone like Xiao Yan was already beyond the cognition of this continent.
Even with her identity, she frequently found it unbelievable because of Xiao Yan’s words and actions, let alone these Snake-People.
Unconsciously, a sense of pride emerged in Yao Chen’s heart.
This is my disciple!
And in the midst of everyone’s shock, Yue Mei was the first to react, shouting at Yin Shi and the others.
“Do you still think Xiao Yan will become a threat to the Snake-People?!”
“Who among us here can say what he just said?!”
“Xiao Yan has clearly shown his true self in front of you. Can’t you trust him?!”
Yue Mei’s words, like a heavy hammer, continuously struck the hearts of Yin Shi and the others.
In comparison with Xiao Yan, they felt vividly how narrow their minds were.
The Tribe Leaders of the Snake-People, the mighty Dou Wang (Battle King, 6th Level), yet their temperament was not even comparable to that of a young Dou Shi (Battle Master, 3rd Level).
Really… it was shameful to the extreme.
In the hearts of Kui Xing, Hua She Wang, and Nan She, they had gradually shifted away from Xiao Yan.
Yin Shi clenched his teeth, gripping the cane in his hand.
His old eyes stared at Xiao Yan, carefully observing his expression, trying to find even a hint of deceit on his face.
However, he gained nothing.
With Yin Shi’s nearly a hundred years of experience, he could affirm that Xiao Yan’s words just now were what he genuinely thought, without any deception.
Even without seeing the future, Yin Shi was confident.
No matter how much Xiao Yan grew in the future, he would not oppress the Snake-People.
It had nothing to do with his sister; it was his own will!
Just at this moment, a commotion suddenly came from a distance. Yin Shi turned his head to see dozens of Snake-People rushing towards them. They had been entangled here for a long time, and it was natural for the Snake-People tribe to send reinforcements.
However, as one of the 8 Tribe Leaders and a strategist, a speculation suddenly popped into Yin Shi’s mind.
